PODCAST: Kind Goal Setting (The Long Game Podcast with Sandra Scaiano)
Nov 15, 2024
Did you know that 93% of people fail within 30 days of setting their goals? It's true, but you can break down goal setting to make sure that you’re not part of the majority who end up quitting.
In this episode of The Long Game Podcast with Sandra Scaiana, I introduce the concept of “kind goals.” Unlike the rigid, strict goals we’re used to, kind goals allow us to be flexible and adjust. They have a have Plan B. Kind goals are fun and connected to who you are and serve who you want to be and bring you closer to the life you want to achieve.
Also discussed in this episode:
- The relationship between success, failure, and lessons
- Anticipating obstacles and building resilience
- The necessary skill of embracing discomfort
- The importance of support and community
I also address some of the reasons why people give up their goals—lack of clarity, unexpected challenges, undefined steps, or lack of a support system. She gives easy, applicable tips on how to deal with them.
